I was working on it by myself, Jake came over before we left for the bar and decided to help. | |

| Yeah a lot of those hoses will be cleaned up and or removed. The bay was sprayed with some sort of rust protection stuff I believe at some point. There is some grime but the bay is black. | |

| Yup, mainly the shock towers have the most protective coating. i can rub through the stuff on like the frame rails with a glove on. | |
